A flexible benefit plan is a component of salary since the employee contributes part of the money used to buy the benefits. Between the employer's contribution, and the employee's contribution, a person can choose from a variety of benefits including health, dental, and long-term disability
If you are employed and have a defined contribution plan as part of your salary, this means that the percentage of your income that goes towards your retirement is at a fixed rate, and will not change.
An employer's contribution to a group insurance plan is deductible as a business expense. This benefit is not taxable to the employee. An employee may not deduct a portion of the premium he cost shares with his/her employer. Typically a group benefit plan includes drug and dental coverage, lfe and long term disability . Where there may be cost sharing of the premium, an employer's contribution shoud always be to the health and dental portion. If any part of the premium for the long term disability is paid for by the employer, should the employee become disabled, then that benefit (usually up to 67% of the pre-disability earnings) would be taxable in the hands of the employee.

Yes it is considered as cost to company, since the benefit would be enjoyed by the employee at a later stage or when he resigns from the company he can transfer or with draw the complete PF money..
If your employer require you to purchase life insurance and you are share a part of the total premia, please bear in mind that the ultimate purpose is the benefit of the employee. So the good intention has to be supported with equal contribution.

You don't really know what your saying. You may have them in a defined contribution plan, but NOT a defined benefit plan. There is no account with a specific value of yours in a DBP. You are promised a specific benefit from the program, the program must have enough to cover all of its' obligations, but no specific part of it is for any specific beneficiary.Nonetheless, most DCP (and even some some DBP) have a procedure for paying off small beneficiaries early. Most DBP do not. Since if you die early, or fail to collect for any reason, the benefit defaults and is essentially the assets needed are able to be used to pay other participants.
